Storm cloud.

One of today's many storm clouds that led to the flooding of large areas of Madrid but left us high and dry! (BTW, I'm pleased I didn't go to La Sierra de La Cabrera today as it would have been a total washout. Here, it is sited directly under the cloud and you don't want to be caught in the mountains in any kind of storm, especially an electrical one!)

Wow I had heard that Spain has had some bad weather lately, also Italy and parts of Turkey - yet we in the UK have had some lovely weather lately!!!! Wrong way round eh? I'm really pleased that you didn't venture up the Sierra, you might have had an accident or something.

It certainly looks very dramatic............even if it didn't provide any rain.........for you at least! I hope you get some soon (but nothing catastrophic of course!

Jenny,
Keith,
It's been this way for 10 days now and the weekly forecast is for more of the same. Unheard of! I travel into Madrid on bus and metro and they are ALL wrapped up in very dark and very heavy (double quilted - that sort of thing) clothes. I stand out like a sore thumb in shorts and t-shirt but what the hey, eh!!

It seems to be everywhere. We have thunder and pouring rain again at the moment. It sounds right overhead! We have had so much of it this year. I hope your weather stays dry at least.

Thank you, Sarah. Today, the storm finally did its thang. Unfortunately far too late in the year to do any good! Water rationing and sky-high veg prices just around the corner!
